An astounding clutch shot by Isiah.

For those who love basketball and its history I heartily recommend the great new book by @adamcriblez: “Kings of the Garden.” Just finished devouring it. An engrossing and eye-opening look at the Knicks (and NYC) from the mid-1970s to mid-1980s.
April 24, 1977: First-year NBA player Moses Malone of the Rockets dunks on Elvin Hayes during Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Malone had 18 PTS/15 REB but the Bullets defeated Houston, 93-90. Hayes had 14 PTS/12 REB and Mitch Kupchak scored 23 PTS for Washington.

April 22, 1986: Julius Erving (age 36) blocks six shots in the 76ers' 91-86 win over the Bullets in Game 3 of their first round Eastern Conference playoff series. Dr. J had 22 PTS/6 REB/6 AST/6 BLK as Philadelphia took a 2-1 lead over Washington in the best-of-five series.
April 22, 1981: Philadelphia's Julius Erving slam dunks the side inbound lob from Andrew Toney during Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Erving scored 12 PTS and Toney had 35 PTS/7 AST/7 REB, but the Celtics beat the 76ers, 118-99. Larry Bird had 34 PTS/16 REB for Boston.

April 25, 1986: An "absolutely amazing" shot by Detroit's Isiah Thomas with 0:11 left in double OT puts the Pistons ahead of the Hawks, 113-112. Thomas had 30 PTS/12 AST/10 REB, but Atlanta won the game—and the series—after a pair of Spud Webb free throws on the next possession.

I’m happy you’re proud of him. He’s always been an idol to me. Even more so now. I see you @olskool888 . “I went through some difficult challenges with substance abuse, especially back in the '90s after I retired, a lot of stuff happened,” said Johnson Tuesday night before…
Proud of my dad for sharing his powerful story of overcoming addiction & finding sobriety. Inspiring to see him partner with Serenity Inns in Milwaukee to help others overcome substance abuse. @olskool888 jsonline.com/story/sports/n…
As you watch small market NBA teams like the OKC Thunder in the playoffs, give a shout out to the ABA! The League opened the door wider for smaller US markets like Indiana, Kentucky, Utah, Denver, New Orleans and several others to walk through! ❤️🤍💙
